I installed the .pkg file. Ok, everything runs well. I can send e-mail within my server. But everytime I try to send e-mail to addresses outside my server, it gave me an error. The error message is like asking you to check your mailbox before trying to send e-mails. But hey, I checked it 5 seconds ago...

Anyone can help? I did nothing other than just installing the .pkg file. So would that be a big problem ?

1.) Check your mail first. If you just installed the relay pkg and try to send a message, it may not work. First, check your email, then try to send the message.

2.) Check your email client to make sure you are using POP3 and not IMAP. I am not positive, but this could cause the POP3 not to register you checking mail.

1.) It works. But only limited to the e-mail addresses, within my server. For example, I can send e-mails to another domain name, hosted on my server, but can't when trying to send to addresses like hotmail.com , home.com etc... And I tried many times on checking my mails first, then send the mail. It isn't working.

2.) Emm... I am using APOP...

Seems like it's just an error for admin. Hmm... Nevermind.

You forgot to:

1) Go to your admin control panel
2) Click the Control Panel button
3) Click the Email Server -> Parameters... link
4) Click the check box for POP Before SMTP Relaying (so that it's checked)
5) Click the Save Changes button

I did it. I can send mails without problem with other accounts. Just not admin.

By the way, the server is down for twice in this week after I installed the pop before relay .pkg file. Does anyone know a fix or anything related with this?
